Hazard Prevention and Control - To effectively control and prevent hazards, employers should: -Involve workers, who often have the best understanding of the conditions that create hazards and insights into how they can be controlled.  -Identify and evaluate options for controlling hazards, using a "hierarchy of controls."  -Use a hazard control plan to guide the selection and implementation of controls and implement controls according to the plan.  -Develop plans with measures to protect workers during emergencies and non-routine activities.  -Evaluate the effectiveness of existing controls to determine whether they continue to provide protection or whether different controls may be more effective.  -Review new technologies for their potential to be more protective, more reliable or less costly.   5. Education and Training - Education and training provides employers, managers, supervisors and workers with:  -Knowledge and skills needed to do their work safely and avoid creating hazards that could place themselves or others at risk. - Awareness and understanding of workplace hazards and how to identify, report and control them.  -Specialized training when their work involves unique hazards.   6. Program Evaluation and Improvement - Program evaluation and improvement includes: -Establishing, reporting and tracking goals and targets that indicate whether the program is making progress.  -Evaluating the program initially and periodically thereafter to identify shortcomings and opportunities for improvement. -Providing ways for workers to participate in program evaluation and improvement.   7.
